The Darkness
Looking into the darkness, Thinking… Thinking that someone is there Thinking that I will hear the window Shatter into a million pieces.
Looking into the darkness, Movements… Movements of frightening people Movements of monsters In my imagination.
Looking into the darkness, Noises… Noises from the door Noises from the closet that I know are surely there.
Looking into the darkness, Lights… My night light still shining Bright like the blazing sun Lights in the Monster’s Gleaming eyes
Looking into the darkness, Voices… Voices of my mom on the phone Voices of the people that I see in my imagination
Looking into the darkness, Colors… Different colors when I close my eyes… Pink, blue, green, and yellow Different colors in my room.... Black and gray
Looking into the darkness, Slamming Sounds… The Slamming Sounds of car doors The Slamming Sounds of my sister’s door closing
Looking into the darkness, Dreams… Crazy dreams that have terrible people in them Wonderful dreams that have people that I love in them
Looking into the darkness, Prayers… Prayers for the Lord Prayers for myself
Looking into the darkness, Everything’s there… I blink and it’s all gone.
